yellowblue Engine Coolant Temperature Gage This gage shows the engine coolant temperature. If the gage pointer moves into the red area, your engine is approaching an overheating condition. Low Coolant Light ( 5.7L V8 Engine) This warning light should come on briefly while you are starting your engine. If the light doesn't come on, have it repaired. If you have been operating your vehicle under normal driving conditions, you should pull off the road, stop your vehicle and turn off the engine as soon as possible. See "Engine Overheating" in the Index. Your vehicle is equipped with a low coolant indicator that is designed to detect when the coolant level drops below the set limit. If the low coolant level sensor (on the radiator) detects that the level drops while the engine is running, the low coolant indicator will light and remain lit until the ignition is turned to OFF. Check the coolant level and add coolant as needed. The low coolant light might stay on after filling the radiator. Turn the ignition to OFF, then restart the engine to verify that the low coolant light goes out. See "Engine Coolant" in the Index. 2-81
